Fox News host Jesse Watters lashed out at a guest as they got into a fiery exchange on his show.
Democrat Mike Nellis was appearing on Fox on Tuesday when Watters repeatedly interrupted him not letting him get his point across.
Nellis is a former advisor on Kamala Harris’ presidential campaign and founded the support group White Dudes for Harris.
He appeared on Jesse Watters Primetime to talk about President Donald Trump now threatening to deploy the National Guard in Chicago after doing likewise in Washington, D.C.
Nellis – who lives in Chicago – told Watters, “Chicago has had the chance to vote for Donald Trump three times and he lost by 80 percent each of the three times he was on the ballot.”
He also stated that the president would be better to focus his efforts elsewhere, continuing, “I think if Donald Trump wants to get involved heavily in issues somewhere else, he should go look at red states, because Donald Trump doesn’t have any urgency to deal with Louisiana, which is the murder capital of the United States, he doesn’t have anything to say about Oklahoma, which has the worst schools in the nation, he doesn’t have anything to say about Arkansas, which has the highest teen pregnancy rate…”
Watters interrupted Nellis, saying, “Those are crime-ridden too, and if the mayor wants to invite Donald Trump and go in there…”
Nellis then attempted to respond, which prompted Watters to shout, “Chicago’s a little bigger than Baton Rouge, Mike. You live in Chicago, you should care!”
He also accused Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson of not caring because he “doesn’t want any backup.” He shouted, “They’re offering him more cops, more guards, and he says, ‘No, more housing.‘ What the hell’s wrong with him?”

Nellis finally managed to respond, explaining that while crime in Chicago is an issue, he wants people to feel safe, “and I’m not gonna feel safe in my city if, when I take my son to school, I have to drive by a tank.”
The response prompted Watters to once again interrupt as he mocked him for his views.
Nellis shared a clip of their fight on X and wrote, ”Seems I triggered @JesseBWatters a bit tonight.” In a further post, he said, ”I told Donald Trump to stay the f–k out of Chicago and focus on the emergencies in Republican cities and states, and Jesse Watters did not like it.”
